Below are answers to frequently asked questions regarding the commitment process and event weekend reservations.

Why do I need to fill this out?
When you registered for TNT, you committed to raising lifesaving funds in return for your participation in the Traverse City Track Club Bayshore Marathon event weekend.  Your commitment response will let your chapter staff know your decision to complete or drop from the season. If you choose to continue the season, you are pledging to LLS to meet your fundraising commitment and participate in your event. 

After you submit your commitment and reservations, your chapter staff person will begin to confirm your event weekend arrangements. 

What is my fundraising commitment?
Fundraising levels vary depending on team benefits selected such as no hotel option. Fundraising commitment levels are available with the race entry and hotel options listed below. If you would like to change your fundraising commitment level, please contact your local staff member with your preferred commitment level before filling out this form.

Fundraising Commitment Options (all include race entry):

• 10K - No Hotel  
  
• Full or Half - No Hotel 
• Any Distance - Complimentary two night hotel stay, with a TNT roommate*
• Any Distance - Complimentary three night hotel stay, with a TNT roommate*

What if I commit to Team In Training and want to drop later?
If you drop from the TNT program after commitment for any reason other than injury, deployment, or pregnancy, you are still responsible for your full fundraising commitment. If you drop from the program due to injury, deployment, or pregnancy, a doctor's note or copy of military orders must be submitted to drop or be allowed transfer to a future TNT event (within one calendar year). In addition, 25% of your fundraising commitment must remain in your current event account. 

Event Weekend Reservations

Race Entry
After you submit your commitment and event weekend reservations, Team In Training will send you a confirmation email including instructions and link to obtain your complimentary race entry. 

What is an Inspiration Dinner?  When is it?
The Inspiration Dinner is a time for your teammates, coaches, mentors, honored teammates, and staff to come together and celebrate all that you have accomplished this season. 

Inspiration Dinner will be Friday, May 26th at 6:30 p.m.

As a TNT participant, your fundraising covers half the room rate. If you opt to have your own room, you will be responsible for paying half the room rate for each night of your stay. The room options available to you are as follows: 

• TNT Roommate: If you and another TNT participant would like to be paired as roommates, you BOTH must enter the other person in the roommate question in order for the system to pair you. 
  
  Please  make sure ahead of time that your desired roommate knows to put your name and chapter down.           

• No Room Needed: You will need to make your own reservations for the event weekend.

• Own Room: You do not wish to share your room with another TNT participant since you would like your own room and/or are bringing guests.  You will be responsible for paying half the room rate per night at the end of the reservation process.  
  
  Will you be sharing your room with any guests?  If yes, you will be asked to provide the names of your guests. Please note, the hotel will assess additional fees for triple & quadruple occupancy.         

Payment and Making Changes to Your Reservations

How do I pay for additional items I ordered?
If you choose to purchase guest tickets to the Inspiration Dinner and/or had hotel fees, you will be required to submit your credit card information.  When you submit your reservations, the system will then charge your credit card for the items purchased.

What happens after I complete the Commitment and Event Weekend Form?
After you submit your Commitment and Event Weekend Form, you will receive a confirmation email with your event weekend reservations and commitment response.  Please review and save this email as it also contains instructions for logging back into the system should you need to make changes to your reservations.
